¹³ Don't let anyone under pressure to give in to evil say, "God is trying to trip me up." God is impervious to evil, and puts evil in no one's way. ¹⁴ The temptation to give in to evil comes from us and only us. We have no one to blame but the leering, seducing flare-up of our own lust. ¹⁵ Lust gets pregnant, and has a baby: sin! Sin grows up to adulthood, and becomes a real killer.
